Chuck Miller is one of my favorite builders, no doubt. He built some off the wall, downright silly stuff, and could follow it up with some damn bitchin' hot rod stuff. From Chuck's more silly side comes the "Crater Raider 1". You almost wonder if this thing even has an engine, as it looks to be the size of a bath tub. Well junior, it does, and somewhere there's a whopping 350cc of martian mower powering this buggy, thanks to a Honda motorsickle.

Some guys don't like hittin' the brakes and having a big ol' set of titties bumping into them. I personally subscribe to the go BIG or go home theory, so this doesn't really apply. But for those who like 'em small, happy fuckin' Friday!

I've owned this bike since it was new. She's only got 2,100 miles on her. My ol' man bought it to use as a pit bike when I was racing peewee mx, we always took it when we went camping and later on, it saw pit bike duty once again when I was drag racing bikes.
This things been sitting in my shed the last ten years, much to my wife's dismay. Anyway, she wanted her shed back, so I took all my bike parts out of there and this lil' Honda. This weeks mission is to get her back up and running, do a few wheelies, and sell her. I'd love to keep it, but the reality is I'll never ride her and I own way too many bikes already.

Check out Wayne Desantis' beautiful shovel powered digger named Lost Cause. This fucker rules. First, it's a big twin. Second, how many diggers can pull off those kinda lines runnin' a sprung seat? This is the only one Ive seen that can pull it off!
Wayne did all the build except paint and plating. The usual Ness frame and 4 over fork. Santee supplied the gas tank, Paughco oil tank, seat and p-pad by Gary Bang, a 5" trailer fender out back and a Cycle Fab Jippo fender up front. Induction by Rivera. Roy Mason absolutely killed the paint. Gorgeous leaf work tied into lettering reminiscent of Roger Dean and capped of with a Frazetta style mural. Ya gotta love it!

The molds to Dan Wood's C-Cab, the HiRoller have resurfaced. They are currently owned by Bernies Welding & Fabrication in Spokane, Wa. I don't believe any bodies have been produced yet, but it should be interesting. I always loved this rod. Originaly penned by Newt, he considered it a "T-C" bucket, which is a good way to explain it. Two of my favorite things combined into one, kinda like t&a.
Peace and axlegrease!

My buddy Rob is getting his frame to roller status. We were talking about what he was gonna run for a tank, and he tells me he was thinking about slicing up a set of fat bob's. Awhile back, I had narrowed and frisco'd an old mustang tank. I did it out of boredom and had no intention on ever running it on anything. He tossed it on the frame and sent me these pics.
Have an asstastic weekend fuckers!

Awhile back I bought this frame from a guy in Nebraska. Supposedly done by Gardner before he started GMA. 4 days later, I picked up a clean ironhead for cheap. About a month prior I bought a primary set up for a Magnacharger off eBay just because it came with the A-frame and belt tensioner pulley. I didn't need the primary but needed everything else. I happen to have another Magnacharger sitting on the shelf with a straight snout drive. See where this is going? Another blown digger. Sometimes shit just comes together. It'll be on the back burner for awhile, I've got 3 other projects ahead of her.

The Viper sidecar rig is a product of three guys who joined forces to create Advance Concepts. The digger is a Kawi 1000 caged in a SB&F frame with a fifteen over girder supplied by CCW. This rig was so f'n hot, you would of thought every digger would've been runnin' one. These guys should've sold a bunch of these, I wonder what happened?
